4 1.1 INTRODUCTION M6 with GPIB M9G The option M6, herein, will describe the operation and M9G remote programming option for the DLM600 series power supply with an Isolation and Polarity Reversal Relay PCB. This option is assembled as a self-contained unit with newly designed extended lower plate and top covers, which allow the user full isolation and reverse polarity capability for both output and external sense. These units measure 21 inches from the tip of the front panel controls to the rear panel output bars. They are about 8.5 inches wide and 1U tall. Illustrations of the DLM600's top, side, and rear views are shown on Pages 11 and 12 of this addendum M6 with Ethernet M130 and M131 This manual covers the M6 Option as it works in conjunction with M130 Remote Programming Ethernet Option and the M131 Slave Option, for the DLM600 Series power supplies. Specific information on M130 and M131 interface cards can be found in the DLM Series M130/M131 Ethernet Option Programming Manual, P/N M FEATURES and FUNCTIONS Transient Response Specification is 1400us Depth is 20 M9G - All standard features remain as described in the DLM600 Series manual and in Section 1 of the M9 manual. M130/M131 - Ethernet M130 and M131 features in manual, P/N M , apply Additional Features and Functions - Output voltage isolation from output load - Output local or remote - Output reverse polarity - Relay hot-switch lock-out (ensures that the voltage across the relay contacts and the current through them, is near zero prior to changing relay states) - Relay automatically disconnects (relays automatically latch Open when a shutdown occurs) Addendum 1

Note: On the Ethernet master, the rear panel switch gets set to Remote On, and all remaining switches are disregarded. Note: Two types of DIP switches are utilized; toggle and rocker. For toggle switches, the shading indicates the position of the toggle switch. For rocker switches, the shading indicates the depressed side.

9 2.1.6 External User Control Signal Connector The external user control signal connector described in the M130/M131 Programming Manual, P/N M , and in the M9G manual, has been changed as it applies to the M6 Option. The end user will no longer have access to the following signals: - POLARITY at pin 6 - ISOLATION at pin 7 - SENSE at pin 8 These signals are now utilized solely by the M6 card. The other signals remain as is. An 8-pin Molex or 9-pin Subminiature-D connector located at the rear panel provides external auxiliary control signals to increase the user s operating control of the supply. The mating receptacle for the 8-pin connector is Molex with 8 female terminals The Molex terminals accommodate wire sizes from #20 - #24. The relay outputs, when active, connect the POLARITY, SENSE, and ISOLATION pins of the connector to the relay COMMON pin. The relays are rated at 1A; for DLM Series 600W, maximum ratings are 60V(PK), 30VA, and 1A. Any change in output (voltage, current, etc.) initiated by the user from the RS-232, GPIB, or Ethernet interface will cause a 10ms synchronization pulse to be generated at the rear panel User Control Signal Connector of the master unit (Sync Signal). Table External User Control Signal Connector Pinout Sub-D Pin Molex Pin Description 1 1 For RS-232/GPIB: FOLDBACK output signal, open collector, active-low. Asserted when in foldback mode. Reserved function for Ethernet interface. 2 3 FAULT output signal, open collector, active-low. Asserted when a fault is recorded in the fault register. 3 6 POLARITY - N/A - Used internally by the M6 Option 4 7 ISOLATION - N/A - Used internally by the M6 Option 5 8 SENSE - N/A - Used internally by the M6 Option 6 2 SHUTDOWN TTL input signal, active-high. Allows the user to immediately shutdown the unit by a TTL input signal. 7 5 COMMON for all signals and relay contacts. 8 4 For RS-232/GPIB: SYNC output signal, open collector, active-low. Pulsed for 10 ms when a change in the output occurs. Reserved function for Ethernet interface. 9 COMMON for all signals and relay contacts. 6 Addendum

11 2.1.7 GPIB Address Switch The GPIB SET UP DIP switch on the rear panel should always have the top switch REM on the ON position, for remote only. The front panel REM indicator should be on (green) at power up. 3.1 IEEE and SCPI COMMAND OPERATION The M9 and Relay PCB operation by remote programming using the M9 IEEE and SCPI command sets are described in the section 3 of the M9 programming manual Useful Instructions The isolation relays may be accessed using the following instructions: If the CAL:MOD:POWERON ON,INIT command has been previously stored in the memory, then the following commands apply: OUTP:ISOL ON ;Closes the output relays (K1 and K3) OUTP:POL ON ;Open K1 and K3 and close K2 and K4. Note that the algebraic sign ;of the voltage value must match the state of the polarity relay. OUTP:SENS ON ;Closes the external sense relay (K5). Note: this instruction, if required by the application, must be entered after the isolation (ISOL) instruction was sent. If the CAL:MOD :POWERON OFF,INIT command has been previously stored in the memory, then the following commands apply: OUTP:STAT ON ;Closes the output relays (K1 and K3) OUTP:SENS ON ;Closes the external sense relay (K5). Note: this instruction, if required by the application, must be entered after the isolation <OUTP:STAT ON> instruction was sent Additional Related Instructions CAL:MOD:ISOL 0 CAL:MOD:RESET OFF,INIT CAL:MOD :POWERON ON,INIT ;Relay open at power up ;Relay to remain open after reset ;Output goes to On state and is initialized FIXED OUTPUT POWER SUPPLY: CAL:INIT:VOLT <value> CAL:INIT:VOLT:PROT <value> CAL:INIT:CURR <value> ;To store a fixed V-out available at power up ;Over-voltage protection ;To store a fixed I-out available at power up MEMORY STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS: CAL:UNLOCK 6867 ;Security code to unlock and store 8 Addendum

13 4.1 Remote Shutdown Operation, DLM Functionality (with Iso Relays) Shutdown Trigger - TTLSD The output is inhibited with a TTL level high (5V). User to connect rear panel utility Digital I/O 8 pin J4 connector next to the GPIB; the pins are J4-2, TTLSD and GND J4-5. A high level will disable the output converter and open the relays for the duration of that level. The output voltage will be reduced to 0V in less than 50ms. When TTLSD level is back to low, the output will return to its previous value and the relay will remain open, disconnecting from the load. GPIB SRQ is possible if the faults event register is enabled and the TTLSD is high, a serial poll will return SRQ 49h. LATCHED SHUTDOWN The relay will disconnect requiring a <*RST> instruction and then you can reprogram the power supply. In addition, the end user could have the unit return an SRQ and use it within the shell program to, in turn, reset the unit. The fault event register must be enabled by the protection enable register to record in the fault register. The user can use it as filter and select specific events. Instructions: *cls ; clears status register *stb? ; reads register s/be 0 sour:curr 5 ; regular instruction set current to 5A sour:volt 25 ; regular instruction to set output voltage to 25V outp:isol on ; regular instruction to turn on the isolation relays stat:prot:enab 32 ; to enable bit 5 0x20 hex or 32 in decimal *sre 2 ; bit 2 will cause a service request At this point if the TTLSD is enabled. serial poll ; to read SRQ (ans) $42 ; 4 = service request and 2 = prot. Event bit FRONT PANEL INDICATION The output light will go off and the voltage and current displays will show 0 s. RECOVERING FROM THE SHUTDOWN EVENT (i.e. *RST) If the shell program resets the unit after the SRQ is acquired, then the unit is ready to be reprogrammed. 10 Addendum
